A woman who sued the rapper Curtis Jackson (aka 50 Cent) for
posting a sex tape of her on the internet is
claiming lawyers
for the now-bankrupt rapper spent lavishly during the
civil trial that she ultimately won.

Last July, a jury ordered Jackson to pay Leviston $5 million for
invading her privacy when he posted the sex tape without her
permission.

The rapper has yet to pay that money because
he filed for bankruptcy shortly after the judgment, and now
Leviston's lawyers are objecting to the attorney fees in an
apparent attempt to get Jackson to pay her first.

In the objection, Leviston's lawyers assert that, "A significant
portion of the expenses sought by the Brewer Firm in the Expense
Application for hotel stays, court reporter fees, travel and
legal research are extravagant, excessive and unreasonable."

Jackson's lawyers from Brewer Attorneys spent $57,241.76 on
hotels alone, according to the
objection. The lawyers chose posh settings like The
Benjamin, and the Loews Regency, where rooms can cost upwards of
$1,000 per night, according to the filing.

Also in question are $26,890.90 in court reporter
fees, $14,800.66 in legal research, and $4,186.94 in
travel expenses.

“We believe all of the firm’s expenses were appropriate,
and we are prepared to demonstrate that to the court,” says
William A. Brewer III, partner at Brewer, Attorneys &
Counselors, in an emailed statement. “We are confident the court
will conclude these expenses were reasonable.”

These new developments come on the heels of a bad few months for
the Queens, New York-born rapper of "In Da
Club" fame.
